The mission of the Academies of Loudoun is to empower students to explore, research, collaborate, innovate, and to make meaningful contributions to the world in the fields of science, technology, engineering and mathematics. Conceptualized over a decade ago, the Academies of Loudoun campus opened in August 2018. Site improvements began in February 2016, and involved the construction of a new three story, 300,000+ square-foot facility, on a 119 acre parcel owned by LCPS.
